i'm usually a person who prefers black over other colors when it comes to clothing, shoes, etc. like most of you, i fell in love with the biker-chic leather jacket that's been going around on heavy rotation lately. black seems to be the popular color, but what do we think of them in brown? i personally love it and perhaphs i should ditch the black for once and go with the brown.

hoodies.

i first noticed the hoodies on the runways from the Chanel spring07 show. i love how some of the designers have incorporated the hoodies into some of their looks, though i'm not sure if i would be daring enough to wear one myself. it's a trend that was around for the spring shows, but barely any were seen on the runways for the fall collections. even though it may not be one of the big trends going around right now, what do we think of this look? i love how it was worn by Hilary Rhoda at Jean Paul Gaultier, Du Juan with the long dress at Hermes and Freja with the lovely sheer nude dress at Karl Lagerfeld.

fancy folds and geometrics- oh my!

seems like structure and enhancing the shapes have been popular lately. another trend that's been newly introduced is the origami draping. best known show that has featured this trend by the mass would be Galliano for Christian Dior's magnificent spring couture show. although it may be too dramatic and hard to wear, other designers have shown this draping in their latest collections in a much more subtle way. There's just something about the details of those simple folds that makes a look sexy and complete.
